Welcome to Sicily, the largest Mediterranean Island and gate of the Western
civilization. Situated in the very heart of the Mediterranean Sea, it is just off the
southern tip of mainland Italy, towards Africa.

It’s more than just an island...it’s nearly a continent of its own being it one of
the world’s first multicultural societies. A special place full of art and
archaeology, history and folklore.

A spectacular nature offers sceneries unique in the world: The fire of
volcanoes, the intriguing green of its fertile soils, the deep blue of the sea and
wonderful colourful beaches, spacing from black to white.

In the past Sicily was Phoenician, Greek, Carthaginian, Roman, Byzantine,
Moorish, Norman, Swabian, Angevin and Aragonese … they all came from far
away to make Sicily their own, creating a space and culture like no other.
They all left colours and flavours, art and legends.

A trip to Sicily is more than tourism: it is discovering a superb mild climate,
excellent food and wine, friendly people and breath-taking landscapes – and
exclusive Hotels.

Just as a tasteful plate all those ingredients make Sicily a favourite location to
organize a very special event, an unique cultural travel, a relax holidays or a
delightful group tour.

Palermo is a city steeped in history. The largest and most populated of Sicily, it
is also its capital city. A city centre rich in beautiful buildings from different periods
of its extraordinarily composite history makes it one of the most requested cultural
destinations of the Island.

Catania is represented by three main characteristics: its charming architecture,
magnificent coastline, and the one spectator who has observed Catania’s centuries
of changes, Mount Etna. With one of the richest repositories of Baroque
architecture in Europe, Catania has art treasures, church museums, and Roman
ruins, well worth seeking out. The city also offers excellent year-round sporting
facilities from skiing on Etna to numerous nautical activities.

Syracuse, notable for its rich Greek history and as the birthplace of the
preeminent mathematician and engineer Archimedes, played a key role in ancient
times, exerting influence over the entire Magna Graecia area of which it was the
most important city. In the modern day, the city is listed by UNESCO as a World
Heritage Site. Ortigia, set on a small island, reflects the typical Mediterranean
way of life, where a walk or an aperitif while chatting with friends is still one the most
pleasant things to do on a lazy day!

Defined by illustrious scholars as "the island within an island“ or "the other
Sicily", with its affluent socio-economic, boasts a rich artistic heritage, mostly
dating from the rebuilding of 1693, Ragusa is located in the south east of Sicily. The
city, declared a UNESCO World Heritage as a valuable record of Baroque art and
preferred “film set” by many contemporary filmmakers, is an example of ancient
and living traditions of rural archaeology, Greek and Baroque architecture, and of
course, typical gastronomy, wines and foods excellence!

The Trapani Coast comprises very valuable naturalistic spots, such as the protected
areas of the Zingaro Natural Reserve. In proximity with Trapani, the particularly
breathtaking landscapes are composed of saline banks from which windmills arise. This
is certainly one of the most important humid coastal zones, protected by the Trapani
and Paceco Saline Natural Reserve. Trapani Province is particularly renowned for
the extraordinary cultural heritage spread all over its territory, from the archaeological
area of Segesta, located in the coastal hinterland, to Selinunte, Erice and the Island
of Mothia.
